The Blue Springs City Council voted unanimously on July 21 to enter a closed executive session under Section 610.021(2) of the Revised Statutes of Missouri for privileged communications with its legal counsel, including matters related to real estate.

A staff member read the motion on the council floor, saying the closed session was requested "pursuant to section 610.021, sub paragraph 2, revised statutes of Missouri for the purpose of privileged communication between a governmental body or its representative and legal counsel including real estate, and that any minutes, documents, and other records discussed or taken during the closed session remain closed, and that this body stand adjourned at the completion of such session." The motion was then moved and seconded during the meeting.

The council conducted a roll call vote. Council member Brummell, Council member Erickson, Council member Edmonson, Council member Rowan, Council member Kaylor and Mayor Levasse all voted yes. The mayor announced "Motion carries" and the body entered the executive session.

The motion directed that minutes and documents discussed in the closed session remain closed; the council did not discuss or disclose the subject matter beyond the statutory citation on the public record.

Ending: No further public action was recorded after the council entered the closed session; the meeting minutes will reflect the statutory citation and the roll call vote to go into executive session.
